PROBLEM SOLVED
Update to this problem and thanks to all the helpful suggestioms.
Recap.....the red parking brake light stayed on but functioned normally otherwise. Finally got it out of the RV shop where they did dug hard to find the problem. Here is the story:
1) They troubleshot the switch mounted on top of the brake pedal assembly by disconnecting the other end of the switch wiring....light stayed on.
2) They checked out another parking brake sensor under the dash and it checked okay, but light stayed on.
3) Finally, they removed the connector to the switch on master cylinder on the outboard side of the master cylinder. LIGHT WENT OUT. Replaced switch and all is well. New switch is called " Brake pressure switch " P/N is
6U9Z 2B264 A Easy access and replace. Swich was $45. It is a small pin-plunger type switch that senses position of something in the master cylinder rather than pressure.
Your rig may be different, but check this switch if you have one, first if your parking brake light is staying on.
Thanks to all and Happy Thanksgiving
